"The Grace-Given Give Grace"

~something Max Lucado said.

I'm going to be less eloquent.  Just letting you know up front.

I love this because:

• it reminds me how much I need grace~from God, from family, from friends, from myself
• it reminds me to give grace~other people need grace from me as much as I need it from them
• it helps me to be more gracious toward those who don't give grace~being punished for my shortcomings by another is painful, but it still doesn't make it right for me to be ungracious back

That's all I got.
